49ers playoff tickets will soon be on sale for general public

Hopefully 49ers fans didn’t spend all their money on Christmas presents, because the hottest ticket in town is about to hit the market.

For all you non-season ticket holders, general public tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. on Jan. 3 via Ticketmaster. There is a limit of eight tickets per order and seats are first-come, first-serve. So it behooves you to sit impatiently at your computer on Tuesday morning, frantically refreshing at 9:59 a.m.

For season ticket holders (both current and 2012), priority sale of playoff tickets ends tomorrow (Dec. 30). But, according to the official 49ers press release, the “vast majority” have already made their purchase.

“Once we satisfy orders from our season ticket holders, we project a limited number of tickets will be available for the general public,” said Jamie Brandt, Vice President for Ticketing and Suites. “If the ticket demand during the second half of the regular season is any indication, playoff tickets should move fast.”
